I'd like to emphasize that willfully violating the terms of use of a
map should always be considered as being illegal and therefore
unwelcomed (particularly in FlightGear land), no matter wether the
map-maker can actually prove in court or not.
And, btw, according to my experience of comparing more than 250
FlightGear airfield layouts against 3rd party data of different
provenance it's much easier to tell the source of such a layout than
you might think !
Cheers,
Martin.
